The former Minor League infielder spent nine seasons with the Milwaukee (1987-92, 94-95) and Kansas City (1993) organizations. He collected a .242 career batting aver-
age over nine seasons as a middle infielder.
Mike was born into a baseball family as Sandy and his father, Epy, was a renowned scout in the Dominican Republic who unearthed over 40 Major League players. Mike
was named after former Major League pitcher Mike Torrez, who was a friend of his father. His uncle, Mario Guerrero, was a Major League infielder with Boston (1973-74),
St. Louis (1975), California (1976-77) and Oakland (1978-80).
Mike and his wife Larissa reside in Melbourne, Fla and the couple has two sons, Michael and Daniel. Mike was born in Santo Domingo, DR.
Coach, Sandy Guerrero
Guerrero, 51, enters his 15th season as a coach in the Brewers organization. Prior to joining the Shuckers in 2015, he coached at
Double-A Huntsville (2003-08, 2014) and Triple-A Nashville (2009-11).
In addition, he spent two seasons as Hitting Coordinator from 2012-13. Guerrero served as Manager for the Northern Division in the
2007 Southern League All-Star Game after scheduled Manager Don Money pulled out of the contest to coach in the All-Star Futures
Game. Before coaching, Guerrero had a 19-year playing career that included stints in the minors with Toronto and Milwaukee. He also
played professionally in Mexico, Taiwan and the independent Northern League.
The former infielder played in the Brewers farm system with Class-A Stockton (1986-88), Double-A El Paso (1989-90) and Triple-A
Denver (1991-92). In 1998, Guerrero won a league championship in Taiwan, claiming the batting title with a .361 batting average.
In 2015, he served as a pitching coach for the U.S. squad during the All-Star Futures Game in his hometown of Cincinnati. In 2014, he
served as Pitching Coach with the Glendale Desert Dogs in the Arizona Fall League.
Prior to joining the Brewers, Hook was the Pitching coach for the Florence Freedom of the independent Frontier League from 2003-07.
He also spent three seasons as the pitching coach for Northern Kentucky University from 2000-02.
Hook was a pitcher for 11 professional seasons (1989-99), including two years in the Major Leagues with San Francisco from 1995-96.
He went 5-2 with a 5.89 ERA in 55 career Major League games. Originally signed as a non-drafted free agent by Cincinnati in 1989, he also pitched in the minor
leagues with San Diego, San Francisco, California and Houston. He finished his playing career in the independent Atlantic League.
Since 2001, Hook has owned and operated a baseball training center based in Florence, Kentucky, where he resides along with his wife, Toni, and their two sons,
Christian and Brennan.
Coach, Chuckie Caufield
Caufield begins his fifth season as a coach in the Brewers organization and first with the Shuckers. The 33-year-old spent the previous four seasons as a coach
for the Brewers Class-A affiliate Wisconsin Timber Rattlers. He served in the same role with the Rookie-level Helena Brewers in 2013.
